Chapter 118: Xiang Yu's Might
To the north of Shouchun, a huge camp was built.
Chen Gong and Liu Bowen's two thousand dragon guards were stationed here. The entire camp was planted with Xiang Yu's banner, and the front village was open and unguarded.
Pang Guangyan, a general under Yuan Shu, personally led 20,000 elite soldiers to the outside of the camp, looking at the empty camp and the hunting 'Xiang' character flag, he didn't dare to enter for a long time.
"It is said that Xiang Yu went to Chengde, I don't know if it's true or not."
"If it's true, there must be nothing in the wall...
"What if it's fake?"
"Then we're dead."
In front of the military formation, several young generals were discussing with each other.
Pang Guangyan scolded: "What are you talking nonsense about." Regardless of whether Xiang Yu is there or not, we have to rush in, this is a military order! ”
"Dare to ask the general, when will you rush into the enemy camp?" The adjutant next to him asked.
Pang Guangyan looked left and right, stared at the front, and said, "Wait a little longer." ”
"I've been waiting for three hours, and if I wait any longer, it's going to get dark." The lieutenant rolled his eyes.
"You'll have to wait if it's dark."
"The art of war, think deeply, plan and then act..." Pang Guangyan shook his head and said the art of war, as if he was confident.
The generals didn't understand, thinking that Pang Guangyan had already had a plan. In order to show that he also understands the art of war, after Pang Guangyan finished speaking, he nodded vigorously and said, "What the general said is very reasonable." ”
"Well, so... Let's keep waiting! ”
An hour later, the sky darkened.
Pang Guangyan gave the order, and fought at night!
It's not so much a night battle as a night battle, because until now, he hasn't decided when to attack.
He was conflicted.
I want to attack, but I'm afraid of Xiang Yu.
I want to go back to Shouchun, but I am afraid that Yuan Shu will blame me.
So, the best solution is to wait endlessly.
"General, I've been waiting for a day. Either attack or withdraw, we really can't stand it. A few young generals rubbed their aching buttocks and complained bitterly.
The soldiers behind him were also very tired.
Knock knock...
At this moment, there was the sound of war drums in front of me, and I saw thousands of elite iron horsemen slowly walking out.
At the front of the queue, a general dressed like Xiang Yu was followed by Chen Gong and Liu Bowen.
"This... Xiang, Xiang Yu is here, Xiang Yu is here...! There was a lieutenant who had seen Xiang Yu and roared loudly.
"You see clearly, is it Xiang Yu?" Pang Guangyan asked.
"Yes, yes... It's Xiang Yu. ”
Pang Guangyan turned his horse's head without hesitation and shouted: "Xiang Yu is in the camp, we are not opponents, hurry up." ”
"Withdraw, withdraw!"
20,000 Yuan troops quickly left.
This scene is really funny, the elite who was still powerful just now became a deserter in the blink of an eye. From beginning to end, the two armies did not fight, but only met each other.
A person who is suspected of Xiang Yu scared off an army of 20,000!
"Sir, it's a clever idea, but... How do you know that Yuan Jun will retreat? In front of the camp, Chen Gong looked at Liu Bowen and asked suspiciously.
Liu Bowen said: "Actually, the generals of the Yuan army have wanted to retreat for a long time, but they didn't dare to leave because they were afraid that Yuan Shu would blame them." Let's let General Zhang Feng pretend to be General Xiang Yu, and give them a reason to withdraw their troops. ”
"I see."
Chen Gong suddenly threw himself to the ground for Liu Bowen's admiration.
"I just don't know how the lord is now. There are also Gao Shun and General Luo Cheng, did they act according to the plan. Liu Bowen was a little worried.
After Pang Guangyan led the army to withdraw, Lu Bu and his party arrived.
Originally, during the day, Lu Bu arrived, but because he couldn't figure out the situation, he didn't attack.
If Pang Guangyan dares to attack the village, he will undoubtedly be attacked from both sides.
"The lord is too respectful and cautious, Yuan Jun is not Cao Jun, let alone a tiger and leopard horseman, Yuan Ba and I are enough to kill them and defeat them." Before coming to the camp, Xiang Yu was still complaining.
"After marching for several days in a row, doesn't General Xiang feel tired? Yuan Shu's soldiers are wasted, so why bother? What does it matter if they live a few more days? When we are full and drunk, we will slowly clean them up. Lu Budao.
While speaking, Chen Gong, Zhang Feng, and Liu Bowen walked out of the camp.
Seeing that it was Lu Bu returning to the camp, they were all very excited.
"Did the lord meet a tiger and leopard ride?" Chen Gong asked.
"Yes. But... and we have destroyed them again. He also captured Cao Ren, Xu Chu, Xu Huang and other generals. Lu Bu looked at Liu Bowen and said, "Sir, you are a little unauthentic, you ran away first, let us meet the tiger and leopard riders." ”
"I don't know that the main guild is back to the army, so..." Liu Bowen explained.
Lu Bu smiled bitterly, not believing it.
A person as calculating as Liu Bowen would not be able to calculate when the broken military camp would return to the army? I'm afraid he wants to borrow his hand to destroy the tiger and leopard rider. Because Liu Bowen knew that the tiger and leopard rider was the world-famous elite, he was afraid that Lu Bu would hesitate and dare not fight with the tiger and leopard.
After this incident, Lu Bu had a more heart for Liu Bowen.
After entering the camp, Lu Bu went to take a shower and eat something.
In the middle of the night, the generals were summoned to discuss countermeasures.
In the tent, Chen Gong, Liu Bowen, Zhang Feng, Xiang Yu, and Li Yuanba sat separately.
Lu Bu took out the map and hung it in front of him.
Zhang Xun retreated to Chengde and only sought self-preservation. Yuan Shu's vitality was greatly damaged, and there was nothing to be afraid of. ”
"After the tiger and leopard cavalry was wiped out, Cao Cao only had 70,000 Qingzhou troops and 3,000 tiger guards left, and he fought with Zhang Liao for so long, presumably his combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. What we have to do now is to deal with the army of Hefei, as well as Cao Cao's Qingzhou army and Tiger Guard. Feel free to share your thoughts. ”
Chen Gong arched his hand and said: "I received an urgent report from General Zhang Liao yesterday that Cao Cao had rushed to Hefei three days ago. Zhang Liao's department, with less than 3,000 people left, rushed to join us. Count the days, it should be almost up. ”
"Of the 25,000 men, only 3,000 remained. It seems that the battle of Ping'a was also very fortunate. Lu Bu sighed.
"Yes, General Zhang Liao, it is not easy to hold Cao Cao back for half a month with his own troops and horses."
"Berwyn, how do you think we should face Cao Cao now?" Lu Bu thought about it, but still pinned his hopes on Liu Bowen. After all, the entire strategy of marching into Huainan was formulated by Liu Bowen.
"The lord doesn't have to worry, Cao Cao's 80,000 people are not to be feared."
Liu Bowen walked to the map and said: "Five days ago, I gave Gao Shun and Luo Cheng an order to march and let them lead their troops and horses to capture Anshan and Jincheng. If they had complied with the order, Cao Cao would have retreated to the south of the Lujiang River by now. ”
